연구 목적: 본 연구는 지르코니아 코핑의 다양한 디자인과 시멘트 종류에 따른 지르코니아 도재관의 파절 저항성과 변연 적합도를 평가하고자 하였다. 연구 재료 및 방법: CAD/CAM system (Everest, KAVO Dental GmbH, Biberach, Germany)을 이용하여, 다양한 두께를 가진 지르코니아 코핑을 디자인하고 제작하였다. 80개의 코핑을 디자인에 따라 20개씩 4개의 그룹으로 분류하였으며, 각 그룹은 다시 시멘트 종류에 따라 시편을 10개씩 나누어 2개의 소그룹으로 분류하였다. Group I은 전체적으로 균일하게 0.3 mm로, group II는 협면과 협측 교합면은 0.3 mm, 설면과 설측 교합면을 0.6 mm, group III은전체0.6 mm 균일하게, Group IV는 협면과 협측 교합면은 0.6 mm 설면과 설측 교합면을 1.0 mm로 디자인 하였다. Putty index를 이용해 같은 크기와 형태의 지르코니아 도재관을 축성 후, 완성하였다. 미세 경도측정기의 현미경 (Matsuzawa, MXT-70, Japan)으로 도재관의 변연 적합도를 측정하였고, 만능시험기 (Z020, Zwick, Germany)를 이용하여 cross-head speed를 1 mm/min로 도재관이 파절될 때까지 수직 하중을 가해 파절 저항성을 측정하였다. One-way ANOVA와 two-way ANOVA 를 이용해 그 결과를 비교 분석 하였으며, 사후 검정으로 Duncan's multiple range test ($\alpha$=0.05)를 사용하였다. 결과:1. 코핑 디자인에 따른 변연적합성은 유의한 차이가 있었다 (P<.05). 2. 임시합착제 (Cavitec$^{(R)}$)로 합착한 군에서 코핑 디자인에 따른 지르코니아 도재관의 파절강도는 유의한 차이가 있었다 (P<.05). 3. 영구접착제 (Panavia-$F^{(R)}$)로 접착한 군에서 코핑 디자인에 따른 지르코니아 도재관의 파절강도는 통계학적인 유의차가 없었다 (P>.05). 4. 시멘트의 종류에 따른 동일한 디자인사이에서의 파절강도는 group I과 group II에서 Panavia-F 접착군이 Cavitec$^{(R)}$ 접착군보다 통계학적으로 유의성 있게 높았다 (P<.05). 5. 도재관의 파절 양상은 지르코니아 코핑의 디자인에 따른 차이는 없었으며, 시멘트의 종류에 따라 Cavitec$^{(R)}$ 접착군에서는 시편이 완전 분리되는 전부 파절, Panavia-$F^{(R)}$ 접착군에서는 전장 도재층에서만 파절되는 부분파절이 주로 나타났다. 결론: 제한된 결과이기는 하나 심미성을 위해 가시면을 얇게 하고 강도를 위해 비가시면의 지르코니아 코핑을 두껍게 하는, 즉 기능에 따라 두께를 달리 하는 세라믹 하부구조 디자인이 임상에서 선택적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료되었다.

현재 인구 증가와 더불어 용수의 저장고로만 쓰이던 호소는 최근 수질개선 문제뿐만 아니라 친수성과 경관성이 요구되고 있다. 따라서 호소의 경관성을 향상 시킬 수 있는 자연정화법인 인공식물섬이 각광 받고 있으나, 낮은 수질개선 효율 등 여러 가지 한계점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 인공식물섬의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 장치를 설계하고 수질개선 효율을 향상시키기 위하여 식생과 여재를 혼용하는 방법을 고안하였으며, 인공식물섬에 충진 될 여재의 오염물질 제거 효율을 알아보기 위한 Lab scale 실험과 여재와 식생을 혼용한 인공식물섬을 현장에 직접 설치하여 현장 적용성을 평가하였다. 1. 기존의 인공식물섬의 경우 시설의 처리면적이 작고 식생만을 이용한 처리 방식이며, 동절기의 경우 식생이 성장하지 못하여 호소의 수질정화 효과에 영향을 미치기 때문에 문제시 되고 있다. 따라서 본 장치는 효율적인 수질개선 효과를 얻기 위해서 여재와 식생을 혼용하여 사용하여 수질개선 효과를 높였고, 유출수를 분수로 분출하기에 경관성과 친수성을 확보할 수 있게 하였다. 2. 고농도 유입수 조건에서의 Bio Stone의 오염물질 제거효율은 SS 62.2%, BOD 50.2%, COD 55.1%, T-N 31.6%, T-P 38.4%로 조사되었다. 유입수의 농도가 높을수록 제거효율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 3. 본 장치의 현장적용성을 평가하기 위하여 호소 생활 환경기준 IV~VI급의 호소에 장치를 설치하고 유입수 대비 유출수의 제거효율 조사 하였고, 그 결과 SS의 평균 제거효율은 53.5%, BOD는 평균 32.8%, COD는 평균 36.9%, T-N은 평균 22.6%, T-P는 평균 33.2%로 조사되었다. 4. 유출수를 분수형태로 분출하기 때문에 폭기현상을 일으켜 자정능력을 향상시킬 수 있으며, 정체성 호소에 인위적인 교란을 주어 넓은 범위의 수질을 개선할 수 있다. 또한 부체틀을 SUS304로 제작하여 부체틀의 부식에 의한 오염이 없으며 반영구적으로 사용할 수 있다.

반응성 조정 압축착화 (Reactivity Controlled Compression Ignition, RCCI) 연소는 착화원인 디젤 연료를 압축 행정 중 이른 시점에 미리 분사하여, 공기와 미리 섞여 들어온 천연가스 연료뿐만 아니라 디젤 연료 자체도 미리 연소 전에 공기와 혼합하여 착화를 이루는 전체 예혼합 혼소(Dual-fuel combustion) 방식의 일종이다. 따라서 기존의 혼소 방식 중에서도 RCCI 연소는 질소산화물(Nitrogen Oxides, NOx) 및 매연(Smoke)을 획기적으로 줄일 수 있고, 또한 높은 열효율을 유지할 수 있는 장점을 지니고 있다. 특히 연소 중 NOx의 발생은 연소 온도와 국부적인 당량비에 관계된 상황에서 당량비를 낮추기 위해 예혼합율을 높이는 시도뿐만 아니라, 연소 온도 감소를 위한 배기재순환(Exhuast Gas Recirculation, EGR)을 적용하는 것이 효과적이다. 그러나 배기재순환은 대개의 경우 터보차저의 압축기 전단에서 추출하는 HP-EGR(High Pressure-EGR) 방식을 적용하는 경우가 많으므로, EGR율을 높일 경우 터빈으로 공급되는 배기의 양이 줄어 배기 엔탈피 감소로 인해 과급이 줄어드는 악영향을 초래할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 서로 다른 두 운전조건에서 천연가스-디젤 RCCI 연소를 시행할 때, EGR율 변화에 따른 엔진 시스템의 제동 출력 및 열효율의 변화에 대하여 실험적으로 분석하였다. 실험 조건은 1,200 rpm/29 kW 수준의 조건과 1,800 rpm/90 kW 이하 조건에서 수행하였으며 NOx와 smoke의 배출조건은 Tier-4 final 배기규제를 기준으로 삼았으며 엔진의 내구성을 고려하여 최고 연소압력은 160 bar를 넘지 않게 제어하였다. 그 결과 1,200 rpm/29 kW 조건에서는 EGR율을 4에서 30 %로 높이더라도 출력 및 열효율의 변화는 미미하였으나, 1,800 rpm 조건에서는 EGR율을 4에서 28 %로 증가할 경우 최대 과급 압력이 2.3에서 1.8 bar로, 최고 출력은 90에서 65 kW로, 열효율은 37에서 33 %로 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 효과적인 EGR공급을 위해서는 현재 압축기 전단에서 추출하는 EGR을 후단에서 추출하는 LP-EGR (Low Pressure EGR) 시스템이 효과적일 수 있음을 시사한다.
